Semua Bab A Spoonful of Sugar: Don’t Beg for Love: Bab 1521 - Bab 1530

Hesper quickly caught the most important word, and Cheney nodded. "Yes, those people."She looked far away and said, "Montequinto is similar to Leafdelle. People here are active in the underground scene and tried to take over Halwanest once. The leader of these people was one of the big families on Emperion, the Lanes."The Lanes and Scarletts had always had a good relationship, and since Asher loved children, Hesper was very close to him when she was a child. Since Hesper lost her parents young, Asher treated her like his own. Although outsiders knew nothing about Benjamin, Montequinto was the main transport hub for the hallucinogens. Many people had their eyes on the place, so they knew a lot more about it than others imagined. Knowing Hesper was Benjamin's biggest weakness, the people who wanted to get to him tried to get their hands on her. Hesper frowned. She knew what happened years ago must be complicated, but Asher… Did he sacrifice himself for her?Feeling complicated

"Rickard…" Hearing the sadness in her voice, he wanted to ask what happened but instead held her in his arms. "Let's go back to our room. We can go home tomorrow."Hesper nodded, and they went back together. When a glass of water was pushed into her hands, Hesper snapped out of her thoughts and took a deep breath. "The owner of the black market was not someone I could have guessed. I met her today."Hearing that, Benji looked over from afar. Rickard was surprised but he knew something must have happened when he saw her odd reaction. He didn't think she met the owner of the black market. "It's Cheney." It was unexpected, but it made sense. Rickard would question it if it was anyone else, but he wouldn't do that to Hesper, so he nodded. "Is it linked to Asher's death?"Hesper didn't expect him to be able to guess it; she nodded. "Yes, it's linked to him."Asher sacrificed himself for her, and she felt guilty about it, but logic held her back and told her it wasn't her fault. It w

"If that's the case, I'll leave it to your family then." Hesper didn't push it.Briar was relieved. If Mr. Chronos wanted to take action against them and hold Dean accountable, it would be beyond Dean and would involve the family. It would also affect their business partnership, which cost a lot. That was why the family was so nervous. Briar was finally relieved after seeing that things would be fine. His smile was warmer. "I wonder when we'll meet again after leaving the black market."Hesper smiled. "There's no need to worry about that. You can do some planning if you want to meet us. You're good at it, so I'm sure we'll meet again."Hesper had always been courteous when speaking to Briar previously. Although her identity and Briar's lie were exposed last night, she didn't seem too angry. However, her words were pretty aggressive. Briar could tell Hesper had a plan when she pretended to be Hestia, but now he was witnessing the strong side of Hesper. Hesper was just tryin

Renfrew stood up understandingly. Hesper knew he was just giving his parents space to discuss what happened. Although he missed them, he knew there were more important things. She felt extremely guilty seeing how understanding her son was, but all she could do was watch him walk away with his laptop in hand. Sighing, she said nothing. When she turned around again, her expression was much more serious. Rickard walked over and sat on the couch. "The descendants I contacted have suddenly disappeared without a trace."Disappeared without a trace? How could a person living a normal life suddenly vanish in half a day?"Hmm… I suspect people found out we were investigating and immediately took action."The way they handled it, the goal was to eliminate everyone. Chills ran down Hesper's spine. On one hand, Cheney's cruelty was way beyond her expectations; on the other, she seemed to have caused these people's demise. She didn't pull the trigger, but in a way, they ended up becoming

Sophia understood her place in the Summers' household. Anyone could walk over her. She went from being Fenix's new wife to someone he was already bored of. No one understood that better than her, so she had to make herself valuable. With Hesper, she had a chance to restart her life. Hesper was surprised to hear what Sophia said; she nodded. "Alright, if we find Chelsea first, I'll remember you helped us with this. Tell me if the Summers take any sort of action."Sophia nodded quickly. After she left, Hesper frowned and said, "Cheney is putting all her attention on us, so this probably wasn't the black market's doing."There were no grievances between Cheney and Chelsea. "The Andersons, on the other hand, are suspicious. Briar might be unable to explain himself if he didn't get what the family needed." Hesper looked certain. "My first suspect would be the Andersons."Rickard agreed. That was the impression Briar gave. He never went back to see them before disembarking, but when
